Description of manuscript content:
Sudassana knew that his fiancée ran away and was now to be ordained. He sent ambassadors to the ruler of Gandharaṭṭha City asking if the ruler’s daughter could be his wife. But Brahmacārī who was chased away by Sudassana (mentioned earlier) went to the Sudassana’s palace and killed him. After that, she offered the city to Chandara-kumāra.
